Grimsby was a rural district in Lincolnshire, part of the administrative county of Lindsey, from 1894 to 1974.
The district covered the town of Immingham and the villages of Ashby-cum-Fenby, Aylesby, Barnoldby-le-Beck, Beelsby, Bradley, Brigsley, East Ravendale, Habrough, Hatcliffe, Healing, Hawerby-cum-Beesby, Humberston, Irby, Laceby, New Waltham, Stallingborough, Waltham, West Ravendale and Wold Newton.
It was separate from the Grimsby county borough and the Cleethorpes municipal borough, which it surrounded on three sides. When the county of Humberside was formed in 1974, the Grimsby rural district and Cleethorpes town were combined, to form the new borough of Cleethorpes
